When The View started out this season things were twice as rosy there with Rosie O’Donnell and Rosie Perez. Before the year ended O’Donnell left the show and now at the end of the season Perez is following her out the door.
The actress says she is departing to focus on her career; but there have been rumors the show hasn’t been happy with her performance and was planning on cutting her.
At this rate, they should honestly just cancel the show. It feels like it is time. What do you think?

Rosie O’Donnell is not only splitting with her wife of three years, the separation is causing her to also leave The View. Her rep told PageSix, “I can confirm that Rosie and her wife Michelle (Rounds) split in November. Rosie has teens and an infant at home that need her attention. This has been a very stressful situation. She is putting her personal health and family first.” Then she added, “ABC has been wonderfully understanding and supportive of her personal decision to leave ‘The View.’ Next week will be her last.â€
I am sure the show was supportive and understanding, she hasn’t proven to be the ratings getter they were hoping for. In fact, I think almost all of the press about her being on the show has been negative, so I am assume they were happy they get rid of their failed experiment.
When it comes to who the daytime talk show should get to replace her, I think they should try to find someone more positive. All that negative energy is too much for people to handle before noon.
Blake Shelton was on The Tonight Show yesterday and Jimmy Fallon challenged him to a game of The Whisper Challenge. Basically, one guy wore head phones with blaring music as the other one read him a phrase that he had to guess. The Voice coach got Benedict Cumberbatch and even though he didn’t think he said it correctly, he did. Then after the NBC late night host got it, Shelton said, “That doesn’t even mean anything.” Then when it was explained to him that Cumberbatch was nominated for an Oscar, he was like, “Who? That’s a person?…I’ve never even heard of that.” Where is Watson when you need him?
How has the singer never heard of Benedict Cumberbatch? I guess that coaching on The Voice, recording new music and touring, there isn’t any time left for him to do anything else.
You know what, now that I think about it. Since Shelton doesn’t even know who Cumberbatch is, I think it would be fun if the Oscars got him to present. Imagine how bad he would screw up the names of the people he doesn’t know, which is probably almost of the nominees. Imagine if David Oyelowo got nominated and he had to try to say that name?

It looks someone took off the Rosie colored glasses from The View because The Wrap is reporting that Rosie Perez is not coming back. The actress is currently on hiatus from the show because she is rehearsing for a Broadway show and now it is being rumored they don’t want her back.
The show’s first season without Barbara Walters has been a ratings dud, so it looks they want to make some changes and go younger. Perez is 50, so they are seeking candidates half her age like Naya Rivera. The Glee star’s comments have been giving the talk show some much needed press in the last few days, so her name doesn’t surprise. In fact, I was already thinking that she would be a good replacement for the struggling show. Much better than Rosie Perez that was an odd choice from her announcement.
At this point, the network is denying this rumor, but I am sure there is truth to it because something has to be done if they want to save this show.
Granted, I think having two Alpha females on the show like Rosie O’Donnell and Whoopi Goldberg was a bigger mistake than hiring Rosie Perez. But not by much.
Today on The View, while talking to Ashanti about the flu shot, a loud sound was heard. Without missing a beat Whoopi Goldberg stood up, claiming she was the one who made the noise.
So do you think she farted or it was a sound effect. Since, she has cut the cheese before of the daytime talk show, I wouldn’t put it past the Oscar winner to do it again.
